The Codex 5278 is a German manuscript created in the 1420s.[1] The original currently rests in the holdings of the Österreichische Nationalbibliothek in Vienna, Austria.
The text is a compilation work including both a war book based on Konrad Kyeser's popular treatise Bellifortis ("Battle Strength") and the oldest entry in the group of manuscripts sometimes called die Blume des Kampfes ("The Flower of Battle").[2] It may be based on the teachings of 14th century Italian master Fiore de'i Liberi, given that his works include considerable overlap in artwork and technique, but it is equally possible that it represents a separate transmission of an older tradition of which Fiore was himself an initiate.
